When I disconnect from a server HL runs as it should, expect that it seems that I'm not connected. As I said everything is normal BUT in the connect options it says that I'm not connected http://forums.ubi.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_confused.gif. When I try to connect it just shuts down HL and erases all my pager messages and wipes my friends list clean. This has only happened after I downloaded the new version since I couldn't use the old one anymore. If someone knows what this is or how to stop it, please advice. Thanks for ansvers.

I couldn't find anything on the HL homepage so I post here.

Did you uninstall version 3.7.74 before you installed 3.8.80? Read the readme in the zipfile. http://forums.ubi.com/images/smilies/16x16_smiley-wink.gif

Same here and I did uninstall before installing the updateed version.
Even though it appears that you are disconnected after leaving a server you aren't just don't push "connect" again it is then you'll have HL crash http://forums.ubi.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_wink.gif

I didn't find any readme in the zip folder but as Flakenstien said simply not pressing connect "fixes" the problem. Should I have uninstalled the earlier version first?

Sorry, when you go to install 3.8.80 it tells you to uninstall the pervious version, my mistake.

I'd recommend the uninstall but it's your choice. I have installed other updates over other HL versions and had no problems.... but you never know what the outcome will be. http://forums.ubi.com/images/smilies/16x16_smiley-wink.gif

I uninstalled everything but it didn't help. I installed it again in the same folder, does that have something to do with this?
Oh well it's not really a problem it just bugs me. Hope I find a way to get rid of this as it's really annoying http://forums.ubi.com/images/smilies/16x16_smiley-mad.gif. Well thanks for advice.
